Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the mushrooms, onion, and garlic. Cook, stirring occasionally, for 4 minutes or until tender. Season with salt and pepper.

Evenly divide the mushroom mixture and spread on 2 of the tortillas. Sprinkle with cheese, and then top with the remaining 2 tortillas.

Wipe the skillet clean with a moist paper towel. Lightly brush the outsides of the quesadillas with oil. Cook one at a time over medium heat for 1 ½ minutes per side or until the tortillas are golden brown and the cheese is melted.

Cut each quesadilla into 4 wedges and serve warm with salsa or chutney.
